The Laundry has got me a bit concerned now - i used to have the perfect system. I would wait until the kids got tired and grumpy and then say to DH "oh we are running out of clean clothing i should go and do a load of washing" faced with the option of being stuck in the cabin with grumpy kids he would always volunteer to do it and i would get the kids to lie down and we would have a nice snooze. Probably won work this time as the kids are older
All the underwear stories have reminded me of two interesting ones.
Once going into Egypt i was travelling with my DH who was crewing the flight and as we went through customs they checked the luggage. It was fine for us but horrible for all the flight attendants as they held up their underwear and waved then around making crude comments.
now for a nicer one. When i was six months pregnant with DS i was going through an airport and set off the metal detector. However we couldn't work out what it was i had no metal at all on me (not even underwire - as advised by Dr for pregnancy) and the beep was loudest over my tummy. eventually they just decided i had been feeding the baby too much iron and sent me on my way.
